For those who kindly participate in our community blog project

Thank you very much for your participation.

The 2nd year students of Japanese at Columbia University are working on a community blog project this semester. In this project, they form groups and each group will discuss their interests (i.e., arts, travel, drama). The purposes of this project is as follows:

• Looking at your own interests, consult not only your own group members but students from other colleges and others who understand Japanese.
• Do as much as possible of the following:

1. Gather new information/opinions.
2. Offer new information/state your own opinion.
3. Exchange opinions.

We would like you to read our posts and leave comments. Your "frank" opinion is very appreciated. If you don't know what to comment, please think about the following 2 points.

1. Do they give you enough/new information?
2. How can they make their blog better?

(Steps)

• Go to "みんなの２ほんご."
  
• Click the names of their blogs (i.e., My しみ （美術のブログ）, 旅行が好きです。 （旅行のブログ）, Drama （ドラマのブログ）) under "コミュニティーブログ." Their blogs are about art, travel, and drama, respectively.
• Read the posts that interest you.
• Click "# comments" (# depends on how many comments have been left before you visit the post) located at the bottom of each post.

• After you see a comment column that looks like the picture below, follow the steps below.

1. Write your comments.
2. Finish word verification by typing a distorted word.
3. Type your account name and password if you have a Google account. If not, check "anonymous."
4. Click "Publish your comment."
